    Distinguished By Gratitude: The Instinct Of Thanksgiving Series

    Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on Aug 19, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,121 views

    The enemy of exceptionality is ordinary. Ordinary people never go beyond the common denominator. This is the story of how thanksgiving distinguished a leper, making him exceptional. Thanksgiving comes naturally or instinctively to those who know how to think. This is the instinct of thanksgiving.

    This is the story of how thanksgiving and gratitude can make you exceptional in the midst of ordinary. It is the story of the ten lepers who Jesus healed on His long and arduous journey to Jerusalem. It is critical to note the writer of this scriptural narrative, the timing of the event and ...read more

    Thanksgiving

    In the Bible, giving of thanks goes far beyond an annual American celebration on a day we remember to thank God for a multitude of blessings. It is a preoccupation of every Christian and extends even to those elders who are "before the throne" in heaven.

    Note: I have some simple, not fancy textual slides I used with this sermon. If anyone is interested, I'll send them directly by email if you'll send an email to me at sam@srmccormick.net with the subject: Thanksgiving slides. THANKSGIVING I. In his 2nd letter to the Corinthian church, Paul told ...read more

    An inciteful look at three occult words that have crept into the church.

    There has been a dramatic increase in the use of words and terms in the church that are taken from the occult and pagan mysticism. Here are three examples ‘Soaking’ Prayer The term 'soaking' started in the occult and refers to the practice of self-emptying so that the divine energy (aka ...read more

    Cultivating An Attitude Of Gratitude

    Only one of the ten lepers in today's story thought to thank the giver for his miraculous gift of healing. God calls us to cultivate an attitude of gratitude, as we thank him for every good gift from heaven above.

    Luke 17:11-19 Cultivating an Attitude of Gratitude One day a woman was rushing home from a doctor’s appointment. The doctor had been late, so by the time she left the clinic she was running quite a bit behind schedule. She still had to pick up her prescription, pick up the children from ...read more

    Does Prayer Have Power?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 11, 2017
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,106 views

    Is there power in prayer or in the one that is prayed to?

    Many people think that prayer ‘works’ because there is ‘power’ in it, when in actuality the ‘power’ is found alone in the Creator God we pray to and who steps into every life circumstance to work it out for our best (Rom 8:28). Prayer is not some tool to move God or a weapon to use against the ...read more

    Today, as we finish our series on the prayers of the bible, we'll look at some of Paul's prayers. We'll look at the specifics of what Paul prayed for his fellow Christians; realizing that we should be focused on these things too.

    THE PRAYERS OF PAUL We've looked at many prayers over these past couple months-the Our Father, the prayer of Jabez, Elijah's prayers, Hannah's prayer, Daniel's prayer, Nehemiah's prayers, and last week we looked at Jesus' prayer. Today, as we finish our series on the prayers of the bible, we'll ...read more

    Prayer is the constant force that delivers divine intervention and the presence of God and the presence of God's angels. We must continue in prayer without ceasing to fight the good fight.

    Breaking 100 coconuts, burning 100 candles, writing prayer request 1 lakh times, rolling beads, climbing the steps with an offering on the head, shaving your hair would do no good in Christianity.

    Prayer points! 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ”Pray without ceasing.” When we want certain things desperately, why not pray desperately? That’s my question! We wait desperately for a promotion, job, partner and what not; yet, we fail to desperately pray because we are doubtful of the ...read more
